In this 2 part tutorial, we will give a detailed overview of the search masks in ICSD and explain tips and tricks on how to best use them. We will also give an overview of the different ways to search in ICSD - from simple searches to more complex searches with the tools for combining searches in ICSD or with the "Expert Search" command line tool.
The tutorial session will include some questions that participants can work on using the ICSD. We will be around to give tips or further help if needed. Of course, we will also be happy to help with problems posed by participants. Both parts are designed for beginners, but will also include some advanced tips and tricks for more familiar users of the database. There will also be plenty of time to ask questions about your specific challenges.
